News Forum - 6 Britons arrested in Phuket with cannabis and laughing gas
Rattles if you’re going to identify false equivalency as your rebuttal, it would be useful to distinguish the specific characteristics that comprise an immigration program. Those elements are legal immigrants on various visas, undocumented immigrants (referred to some as illegal immigrants) and refugees. I cannot speak for France, but in Australia, legal I’m migrants are subject to stringent criteria around language competence, cultural awareness of Australian way of life, levels of education and financial bench marks. Refugees are given support in the recognition that they have come to Australia with nothing and need this support to establish themselves and is no different to any other host country. Both groups immigrants and refugees are appreciative of the new start they have been given. The skilled migrant class add value to the economy and the refugee class are a drain on the economy but their children will be assets to Australian society when the become part of the workforce. The Australian government are willing to pick up the tab for the refugees because it is views as an exercise of ‘soft power’. In Australia refugees it should be note make up a small percentage of new arrivals. Undocumented immigrants (the third group) is not the issue in Australia that it is France and greater Europe. What I can tell you is they are not in any way, shape or form subsidised by the Australian government beyond food, medical supplies and maintenance of the facilities in which they are housed. Any support they receive beyond that comes from humanitarian organisations as I suspect is the case everywhere else. I gather when you mention immigration it is the latter category you have in mind (illegals). And for mainland Europe it’s an issue that can’t be fixed by the EU alone. If we revisit the observation made of the French football team I would be highly doubtful that undocumented/illegal immigrants would be representing the French football team. Furthermore, whilst France is subsidising its refugee population I would shocked if it was subsidising the other elements of its legal migration program. What I can guarantee is, those young men playing in French national team would be proud to running out for the red, white and blue. It is also worth pointing out that Thailand, a developing nation itself contributes indirectly through the UNHRC funds towards the undocumented Burmese who inhabit its border communities. And finally, with regard to assimilation and loyalties, judging by the posting histories of the expat community on this forum, it’s pretty safe to say Thailand and it’s issues get very little interest when compared to the interest shown on threads pertaining to issues related to the ‘mother country’s. There’s plenty of expats living here who would know who the prime minister is. Anyway rattles I’ve enjoyed the chat. -
